Hi everybody,
I would like to seek out some help from the community in determining an effective build for my Hierophant.
I started him off thinking the DH2.0 wasn't so much about optimized builds but I was wrong of course as taking talents because they look cool or are advised in the core book isn't the best idea.
So basically, I have 7500 xp and the following base stats (which I can't re-roll).
I am looking for your experiences or ideas.
WS 36, BS 37, S 31, T 37, AG 20, INT 33, PER 32, WP 38 FEL 31
My aptitudes are: WP, Leadership, FEL, Social, Toughness and I picked WS.
My character's background is a Priest that got detached in the IG in a war vs Orks. He was leading the guardsmen in combat before he was drafted by the inquisition.
My idea was to build the following:
Some Melee ability, as our party is lacking this and I like the idea of him being a little bit like a commisar: swinging his sword for morale mainly
I know AG 20 is really bad, so I wanted to compensate for that by a refractor field, to have some kind of defence.
Other gear would be Chainsaw (custom grip), Hotshot Lasgun (red-dot).
For combat I would choose the following talents: Swift Attack, Inescapable Attack and Blade Master
Boost some stats: WS to 46, T to 42, PER to 37 (for inescapable attack). I would also like to boost FEL to 41 (to be effective at skill checks) and WP to 42 for the WP bonus on Sway the Masses (though this seems less important).
What are the roleplay talents, apart from Peer(X) that would fit a talky character, who get's his way by persuading people?
